    Yes, it's one of the better ways. Please be sure to only turn it by hand (NO DRILLS). Use just a slight amount of pressure and twist. It will slowly chew up the debris and clear the plug. It may take a little time and your fingers may get tired, but it works.

    go to your local welding supply shop and they will have a small bit cleaner that is full of micro drill bits. the larger of the bits will work just right.
    freedom isn\'t free but the U.S. MARINES will pay most of your share!! S/F MAY THE LORD BE WITH THE 2/7 ECHO 2ND PLT.
